MONDAY JULY 17

So Monday I was already when Scott knocked on the door. I sat down in the wheel chair and Hunter ran up wanting to go. I said not this time. Hunter did that thing where she put her lower lip over her upper lip and looks like she is going to cry. Scott leaned over and did the same thing. Putting his bottom lip over his top lip. I just looked at them and then said, Oh you too. Ok, lets go. Scott put Hunter on my lap and hurried to the door. Hunter and I were yelling stop because we thought he was going to run into the door. He stopped and opened the door and took a run to the hospital. Half way up the pool he made a 180 and pushing really fast headed to the door again. I screamed your going the wrong way. He made this huge curve around the pool now going toward the hospital really fast. When we go to the hospital he opened the door and we went in. I said, to him could we not do the roller coaster ride on the way back? The nurse did the standard test and then took me to the exam room. The doctor came in, asked how I was doing and then measured my stomach. I was getting quite a stomach. You could clearly tell I was pregnant by looking at my stomach. She took out the jell and put it on my stomach. She put the probe on my stomach and started checking every thing out. She said, she had to take measurements. She was going around and went oh. She said to me you are maybe 17 weeks. Do you want to see the baby? I said, Scott should leave because no one should see the baby before the father. Scott agreed and stood up leaving with Hunter. The doctor turned the monitor toward me and said I think we have figured out part of your health problem. She pointed on the monitor and said, do you see this baby? I said yes. It was so great. The doctor said, I think it is a boy but not positive. Then she said, do you see this baby. I said, Oh my god another baby? The doctor said, yes they both are very clear and look really healthy. All I could say was oh, my god, Oh my god, this so great. I can’t wait for Matthew to come back next week. I said, to the doctor you are not going to tell anyone are you? She said, No. I said, I want to surprise Matthew, he is going to be very excited. The doctor said, I think Matthew is going to be very happy. I don’t think you have to come back for two weeks unless you are not feeling well. Then I want you to call or come right in. I think you are going to have two health babies. I said, thankyou. Oh my god thankyou. I can’t wait for Matthew to get back. I cleaned my stomach and headed out the door. Scott was out there with the wheel chair and said, Is everything ok. I said, everything is great. The doctor said the little guy or girl looks really healthy. When we got to the table Mom asked if everything was ok and I did a thumps up and said with a big smile, everything looks great. The doctor said 17 weeks. I was so happy. I can’t wait for Matthew to get back so I can share the good news. Breakfast was great, class was great, lunch was really good, a dip in the pool was great, my nap was great and dinner tasted really good. Over all the day was really good. I was so excited about todays news I could hardly get to sleep.

At the monastery there were 6. Everything was going well. The training monks were being harder on us since it was our last week. In the afternoon they put us in two lines. Matthew had the first guy that was not in our group. The first guy kept trying to get to me but I would just move and then I would smack him on the arm or leg or back. I started making him really mad. He stepped back looked at me with this I am going to kill you. He did a stance that you do when you are going to kill someone. He came at me with everything he had. I moved and pushed him. The Master monk saw what he was doing and stood up. He waved at the training monks. They went up to him. He said something and they came and got the guy. One on each arm they carried him off. You are not suppose to kill the other person. The next guy came up. He was not from our group either. He bowed, took a stance, and looked at me for a good long time. I wondered what he was waiting for. Then he said, oh shit. He bowed and walked away. I went and sat back down with Jean. Jean grinning said, you didn’t leave one for me? We went to dinner. Jean and I were happy we were down to our group. After dinner we did more exercises and took more beatings from the training monks. Before we went to sleep we talked about tomorrow. Matthew decided he would take on the woman because he was better at blocking her kicks. With our plans in place we went to sleep.
